Requirements:
Difficulty:
Please note: Often campaigns introducing new mechanics are listed as expert level on the add-on server, here difficulty means the raw difficulty after the mechanics are understood.
- Unbalanced = If you can't beat the hard mode, it isn't necessarily unbalanced, but if the difficulty changes erraticly from one scenario to the next and only people using the debug mode have seen the final, then it is.
- Easy
- Normal
- Hard
Style:
Please note: Many campaigns will feature more than one style. Please list the most significant ones.
- Skirmish = small to medium sized armies, your standard Wesnoth gameplay
- Dungeon = long and narrow tunnels (not every underground scenario is a dungeon, a dungeon isn't necessarily underground)
- RPG = role playing game elements such as talking with non-player-characters, item collection, dependency on a party of very few adventurers without or limited recruits
- Survival = being exposed to changing, spawning enemies while remaining on the same map
- Large Battle = Eastern Flank in Northern Rebirth, Civil War in Son of the Black-Eye
- Simulation = campaigns feat. terrain modification, alternative resources
- Puzzle = a suddenly presented, but solvable problem, e.g. boss levels and events in Invasion from the Unknown
Faction/Era:
- Era for whole campaign and your faction or some other information about the units available.

Fate of a Princess

Part II: The Greenwood elves face a crisis which demands the return of the queen's estranged half-elven half-sister, Baldres' daughter. Two brave young elves must make a perilous journey to find her and bring her back to her former home. If they fail, the whole northlands will be engulfed in war with the resurgent orcs...
